Currently, we have nothing behind Stafford. Nothing at all. Not one single QB who can be counted on to step in and win a few games if Stafford went down and to me, that is a concern during an All In year.
Enjoy reading everyone's opinion (everyone's got one, kwim

), so here is mine. The "
we have nothing behind Stafford" reminds me (I've said before) of the Joe Montana / Steve Young saga. Here's a snippet of the current reporting on that:
The main knock on Steve Young backing up Joe Montana is that he is an over-aggressive, turnover-prone scrambler who trys to make too many plays, unlike the calm and precise Montana.Sounds about the same here and we should pump the brakes. Stetson Bennett has done nothing but perform, grow and get better. I'm getting more and more confident he's showing he can step in, especially now running the 1st team in camp, should need be.
But just my opinion.
Not comparing Bennett to Young, but what we do know in fact is what happened in the Montana / Young situation. Young sat behind Montana for 4 years. Both now in the HOF.
